Inherited a Digital HiNote VP Laptop Model TS30H S# PJ4WKNOTE, 4GB IBM HD,
think 64MB memory, Combo Toshiba cdrom and Floppy drives, Digital Lithium
Ion battery, 14.4V, 2700 mAh, with Pentium and WNT stickers on keyboard.
Doesn't work, extremely slow and flaky and found PCI card slots have
scrambled pins inside. Wanted to recycle it and tried to take it apart. Took
all screws I could find out and still couldn't get at the card terminals to
straighten them. Never got inside a laptop before, and wondered it there are
hidden screws somewhere. I quit and decided to ask for some open source
help. I didn't want to trash it taking it apart.
1. Is it better to get at the insides(PCI card terminals) from the bottom,
or the keyboard? It looks awfully busy inside.
2. Where does one find hidden screws holding it together? I took all the
drives and battery out.
3. Any words of advice?
Tony.
